Verified step by step guidance1
Understand the definition of an electrolyte: an electrolyte is a substance that produces ions and conducts electricity when dissolved in water.
Recognize that a strong electrolyte completely dissociates into ions in solution, allowing for high conductivity.
Know that a weak electrolyte partially dissociates into ions, resulting in moderate conductivity.
Identify that a nonelectrolyte does not dissociate into ions at all in solution, so it does not conduct electricity.
Therefore, a solute that does not dissociate in solution is called a nonelectrolyte.
